Ever got into a fight as a result of poker?

[Crotale]

I've only ever played online so no. I did get into an argument in the chatbox once though with a guy who kept on insulting everyone at the table.

[aggers]

I've had a 'fight' with MAD DOG of northampton... Malcolm Daniels... He used to be bad-ass years ago but nowadays he's a joke.

A year or two ago I asked him something like "how did you get those chips DOG?" and he blew up and threw a cup of tea at me and then tried to wrestle me to the ground.

Bear in mind this guy is like 70 years old and in the end i have to headlock him to the ground for the doormen to take him away... lollers, stupid old fool.

This bloke is the only person I've ever thought about having to fight at the poker table, simply because he is such a nasty antagonising prick. I've seen him go mad and start demanding that somebody go outside for a fight just because showed a bluff for a tiny pot in a £30 tourney. I asked another older player about him and he said he's always getting barred from places for stuff like throwing chairs at people, and generally he creates a horrible atmosphere at the table.

Stupid old fool indeed

Bit of a co-incidence that there was a kick off in Dtd last night, loud bang (the meeker thought a shotgun had gone off), and all the big guys go storming out to settle and the police are called.

I'd always thought his bark was worse than his bite until these posts. Always found it pretty easy to put him on tilt too.

Chap at the aria last night wasn't too happy when his aces < my kings aipf. He got very upset and threw out a few unpleasant utterances. Obviously that is the first time he's ever lost in that spot. 

Anyway, he went white and I was not thinking this was a good situation for standing up and pointing out he was being a childish tool (I have a sixth sense for these things). He would have defacated down my throat if I had dared to open my mouth!

Resisted the urge to offer my hand when he bust 5 long, quiet minutes later.

A player in my game was about £3k ahead at the Empire last year, and decided to leave as he was smashed and felt sick.   Walking outside he was hit on the back of the head by someone with a lump of lead piping (which I thought only happened in Roger Melli sketches) and was knocked out cold.  Unfortunately, the thieves hadn't factored in his extreme drunkeness which meant that he had wandered off home leaving his £2k and his wallet on the poker table and they were safely in the Empire cage when he returned the following afternoon. 

Obviously this is no sleight on the Empire as they could have just been opportunistic theives in Leicester Square targeting a drunkard.

Never had a problem with him. He did try and start something one night at a table I was on and he just got told the shut up and grow up and that was about it. Mad-Dog became a little puppy
